Genesis 21:17-18 God heard the boy crying, and the angel of God called to Hagar from heaven and said to her, "What is the matter, Hagar? Do not be afraid; God has heard the boy crying as he lies there.Lift the boy up and take him by the hand, for I will make him into a great nation."
This made me think about how God is so good to jump in and resolve the consequences of our sin - he did not tell Abraham to have a child with Hagar, but he still came in and turned the situation around when Hagar and her son were near death. We are fallen people, and God's original plan for us may need revision as we sin, but he works with us even as sinners, forging new paths to our destiny.
